I recommend Mofu considering a solution for Android users - let people do fan ports unofficially, without interrupting to the apk development himself. That will do for now, due to the following reasons:

1. Fan-made ports for androids WILL ALWAYS be on various sites, no matter if the dev allowed that or not; they will find a way.

2. Android users are well familiar with emulators, they have a ton of emulators to play PC games. That'll make them happy for sure.

3. In a far-far future, near the game release/finishing phase, you can always make an agreement with one of the fan-port devs to post a game officially, you can check their product and allow them to post that on your behalf (like you allow translators to translate your game - why not allow some fans to make android ports and then they will send a version for Mofu to check? That seems rational to me).

Anyway, there is a plefora of solutions, from ignoring up to finding a fan to port that game on Android, without Mofu wasting his time, attention and nerves on the port. Please consider one of the steps above. Thank you

I mean, point 1 and 2 stated that fan-made ports and emulators will always pirate Mofu's content, no matter if he agreed or not, I just suggested to ignore the apk development for now, but yeah. If that's a real concern for the dev - I understand why he wants Android version of his own, so he can hunt down any unofficial versions and ban them. Sorry for the text then

Yes, you are free to reply to anyone. And you don't need to ask my permission.

About this, as long as you don't say some offensive sentences or deliberately make trouble, the ordinary authors won't do so

I got it, the apk version is to protect copyright claims and rights. That explains everything, thank you.

P.S. I never said a word about price or game being free, I dunno why you mentioned it :D

My bad, bad wording. I didn't mean to tell "allow them be unpunished", just to "ignore android for now because there are ports and no need for an official one".  Of course those ports should be hunted down and banned, I was a bit too philosophical about the issue and merely meant "they have a way to play anyway". Please forgive me if I sounded like promoting pirating this game, I should've been more clear

Yikes, this got pretty heated.

i agree with Lipstor here, if Mofu wishes to do the android port theirself, so be it. Also unofficial ports, not even mentioning pirating being a massive no no, can lead to all sorts of malware being buried in the code.

I cannot accept this game to be rewritten inside. Because I don't know what kind of trouble it will cause.😓
